Note that some problems may be posted here before we have covered the skills and concepts I expect you to use to solve them. Don't let that stop you. Most mathematical problems can be solved in more than one way.
When you have solved a problem you should add a link underneath the problem for your solution, then put your solution on a new page on the wiki. (See Editing if you're not sure how to do that, or ask me.)
Resist the temptation to look at other students' solutions before you've worked a problem out for yourself.
Note: Most tests and exams will have at least one non-routine question.
Finally, feel free to add your own problems here. Writing non-routine questions is an excellent way of exercising your understanding.
